Overview

Franklin Ridge Retreat – Absolute Privacy on 55 Acres

Escape to your own private sanctuary just 15 minutes from both Daylesford and Castlemaine. Tucked away at the end of a long driveway, this remarkable property offers total seclusion and a relaxed rural lifestyle, surrounded by native wildlife including kangaroos, echidnas, koalas, owls and parrots. With 55 acres of undulating light forest, open clearings and pasture — plus glimpses of Mt Franklin — this is a haven of peace and natural beauty. The double-storey residence is warm and inviting, with polished hardwood floors, a wood heater, and plenty of natural light. The ground floor features an open living and dining area, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, and laundry, while upstairs a spacious master suite with timber-lined vaulted ceilings offers a tranquil retreat. The home is well equipped with modern conveniences, including air conditioning, internet access, and a solar hot water service. Adding further flexibility, a double-storey steel-framed shed has been converted into a comfortable studio — ideal for guests, a home office or creative pursuits. A large shed/workshop with lock-up store, three securely fenced paddocks, bore water, dam and rainwater tanks provide practicality for hobby farming or lifestyle use. Perfect as a permanent home or a weekend escape, this property combines absolute privacy, modern comforts and an abundance of natural assets in one of central Victoria’s most sought-after locations.
